Frank Flame - Hydrogen gas - sea water + RF energy - electrical power - generator - diesel That is an enormously complicated way to burn diesel. I did work similar to this in grad school. Basically, it uses electricity to produce hydrogen but I am not sure it is any more efficient than the normal electrolysis. The RF produces a high e field producing discharges in the water surface thus making hydrogen. We tried it to break up pollutants but the RF does not go very far into the water so is sorta innefficient. What he REALLY needs is a pulsed electrical discharge in the water because that produces a volumetric effect rather than a surface effect. This requires either a rotating spark gap or some fancy solid state HV, high current switches. I'd say, "Not much new here". |
